Hello BP! I'm looking to invest out of state and Milwaukee has caught my eye. Who's got rentals in Milwaukee?  Would love to connect and gather some info from you. Would love to hear why you are investing in Milwaukee. Thank you BP!

@Jorge Ruiz

These are all true but not especially useful tidbits about Milwaukee.

South side Milwaukee is not to be confused with the separate city of South Milwaukee .

You can invest in West Allis, but East Allis does not exist .

 Cudahy is pronounced "cut a hey".

In Wisconsin, there is a city called Fond du Lac. In Milwaukee, there is a street called Fond du Lac.  When you are in Milwaukee on I-94 and you see a giant sign with an arrow for Fond du Lac it us directing you toward the city of Fond du Lac, not the street.

A Polish flat is generally 2 or more stories.

Bay View is actually just s neighborhood of Milwaukee, not a separate city as many people think.

All right, one actually useful tidbit, Dawn Anastasi has an Ebook about the neighborhoods of Milwaukee broken down by zip code.  It's a good intro and you can find it through her BP profile page.
